NASDAQ:RGTI News 9 December 2025 - 24 December 2025

As of Sunday, December 21, 2025, quantum computing stocks are heading into one of the strangest trading stretches of the year: a holiday-shortened week with thinner liquidity, fewer scheduled catalysts, and a sector that can swing hard on a single analyst note. That’s a big deal for investors tracking IonQ (IONQ), D-Wave Quantum (QBTS), Rigetti Computing (RGTI) and Quantum Computing Inc.

The result: familiar tickers—IonQ (IONQ), D-Wave Quantum (QBTS), Rigetti Computing (RGTI) and Quantum Computing Inc. (QUBT)—are seeing early moves as investors weigh near-term catalysts against the longer-term question that still defines the entire theme: How fast can “quantum promise” turn into durable, recurring revenue?

NEW YORK — December 18, 2025 (around midday ET) — Quantum computing stocks on U.S. markets are attempting a bounce Thursday after a sharp, sentiment-driven pullback that hit high-beta tech names. As of the latest available pricing near midday (11:42 a.m. ET timestamps), the four U.S.-listed “pure-play” quantum names are all higher on the session, with traders reacting to a mix of partnership news, M&A headlines, and fresh analyst coverage that frames quantum as a long-duration “compute” theme tied to the AI buildout.
